> What do you think about the suggestion solution of changing the overlay rendering to include arbitrary text?

I don't think I understand the question.  What do you mean by "overlay
rendering"?  An overlay can produce text only if it has a
before-string or after-string property, so what do you mean by
"arbitrary text"?

> More to the point, what do people think about the making the extent of an outline of an entry include a new line? Is that more or less logical than the current behaviour?

How would that help?  The display engine is blissfully unaware of Org
headings and entries, it just sees text in a buffer.
